IniReadPvt Failing

Keywords:        IniReadPvt ini read private pvt file

If IniReadPvt is not working correctly to read the INI file, then most likely the problem lies in the keywords, the path or What file format the file is saved.

In order for the INI file to be a correct (and readable) INI file, all sections must have unique keywords. If the keywords are the same, as in the System.INI, then the command will just access the first section with the keyword it comes upon and not advance any further.

The Ini file also must be saved as a standard ansi/ascii text file. Unicode files are not valid ini files.

You must also specify the path of the INI file. WinBatch always assumes INI files are in the Windows directory.
